“Crystallographic plane tuning of charge and spin transport in semiconductor quantum wires”. Wang M, Chang K, Wang LG, Dai N, Peeters FM, Nanotechnology 20, 365202 (2009). http://doi.org/10.1088/0957-4484/20/36/365202
Abstract: We investigate theoretically the charge and spin transport in quantum wires grown along different crystallographic planes in the presence of the Rashba spinorbit interaction (RSOI) and the Dresselhaus spinorbit interaction (DSOI). We find that changing the crystallographic planes leads to a variation of the anisotropy of the conductance due to a different interplay between the RSOI and DSOI, since the DSOI is induced by bulk inversion asymmetry, which is determined by crystallographic plane. This interplay depends sensitively on the crystallographic planes, and consequently leads to the anisotropic charge and spin transport in quantum wires embedded in different crystallographic planes.

“Carbon nanotube TiO2 hybrid films for detecting traces of O2”. Llobet E, Espinosa EH, Sotter E, Ionescu R, Vilanova X, Torres J, Felten A, Pireaux JJ, Ke X, Van Tendeloo G, Renaux F, Paint Y, Hecq M, Bittencourt C;, Nanotechnology 19, 375501 (2008). http://doi.org/10.1088/0957-4484/19/37/375501
Abstract: Hybrid titania films have been prepared using an adapted sol-gel method for obtaining well-dispersed hydrogen plasma-treated multiwall carbon nanotubes in either pure titania or Nb-doped titania. The drop-coating method has been used to fabricate resistive oxygen sensors based on titania or on titania and carbon nanotube hybrids. Morphology and composition studies have revealed that the dispersion of low amounts of carbon nanotubes within the titania matrix does not significantly alter its crystallization behaviour. The gas sensitivity studies performed on the different samples have shown that the hybrid layers based on titania and carbon nanotubes possess an unprecedented responsiveness towards oxygen (i.e. more than four times higher than that shown by optimized Nb-doped TiO(2) films). Furthermore, hybrid sensors containing carbon nanotubes respond at significantly lower operating temperatures than their non-hybrid counterparts. These new hybrid sensors show a strong potential for monitoring traces of oxygen (i.e. <= 10 ppm) in a flow of CO(2), which is of interest for the beverage industry.
